Food Systems

We believe that the current food system should deliver healthy food in an equitable, environmentally sustainable way.

We support projects that address problems along the food chain, including those that build soil health, promote the conversion of industrial farmlands to healthier farming methods, protect existing ecosystems, provide access to farmers that will be good land stewards, make farming a viable way of life for a new generation of farmers, provide off-takes for non-industrial grains and crops, and help connect consumers to healthy, affordable food. Our focus is in Colorado and California, but programs across the Western United States will be considered.
